This functionality is particularly useful if you are transitioning between devices on a regular basis and even quicker if you log into the device using biometrics. Page 14 of 24

15 What is a Thin-Client device? You may often hear the term Thin Client, so we felt it pertinent you know what this device is. A thin-client device is a desktop terminal that has no hard drive, so all features typically found on a desktop PC including applications, data, and memory etc are stored on another larger computer (typically a server) which is located in a data centre. Epworth have a large percentage of thin-clients rolled out across the sites. If you do not have your own personal device to use onsite and you want to access applications you must use a thin-client to do so. Examples of thin clients available across Epworth are displayed below: IT Services/Resources List For some Medical Specialists there are other IT Services/Resources which are not included in the All Medical Specialist Access list but are additional features/resources for a specific area of practice or site e.g. Medical and Radiation Oncology Specialty use the Aria Oncology Information System and for sites, Epworth Eastern who use MedChart e-prescribing.

Follow the below instructions to enrol: Initially, place your finger on the scanner and enter your username and password when prompted If verification fails when using the Nurses Station terminal, the clinician will be presented with the option to enrol or cancel if their fingerprint is not recognised. If they choose to cancel, they will have the opportunity to try and rescan their finger again. Then simply place the preferred finger on the scanner until all dots turn green. This will be repeated 4 times with the same finger The clinician s username will then be registered against the fingerprint for future access to the system Once enrolled, the use of the biometric scanner will log on and off the user. If verification fails when using the Nurses Station terminal, the clinician will be presented with the option to enrol or cancel if their fingerprint is not recognised. If they choose to cancel, they will have the opportunity to try and rescan their finger again. Once a clinician attempts to login and their fingerprint fails the biometric authentication 3 times, the device will prompt the user to type their username and password If the password is entered 3 times unsuccessfully, the clinician will be prompted to contact the Epworth Service Desk at Ext to reset their password.
